Did you know that you can hire a talented and experienced job seeker to your staff and that the Federal government will pay their salary until September 2010? Upwardly Global is partnering with the City of San Francisco around a Jobs Now program which enables local companies and non profits to increase headcount at minimal cost.

The City is using federal stimulus funds to create great employment opportunities to help local businesses succeed and to also put people to work. As an employer, you hire job seekers who are 100% wage subsidized from the date of hire through September 2010. All you have to pay are taxes and benefits.

To learn how to recruit highly skilled employees through the Jobs Now program please join a free webinar jointly hosted by Upwardly Global and the City of San Francisco.

What do Yahoo, eBay, and Google all have in common? Each was founded by an innovative immigrant in the US. "Half of Silicon Valley start-ups were founded by immigrants, up from 25% a decade ago...Immigrant-founded technology firms employ 450,000 workers in the U.S." (We Need an Immigration Stimulus. Wall Street Journal. 4/27/09)

Upwardly Global will work with over 120 immigrant professional jobseekers in Chicago this year alone, representing an expansive amount of experience and skills across industries for local employers in search of talent. Don't miss this great networking and educational opportunity focused on a new dimension of diversity in the American workforce.

Volunteers help our jobseekers practice American style interview skills to help them prepare for a real job interview.

The first census, or count of the population, was conducted in 1790 in the U.S. and has been carried out every 10 years since then. The next census occurs in 2010. The census counts everyone residing in the United States: in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the Island Areas. Data obtained from the 2010 Census will determine how many representatives a state will have in the U.S. House of Representatives. The allocation of approximately $300 billion in federal funds every year is also based, in part, on census data. In short, the 2010 Census helps politicians make informed decisions that will impact each and every one of us.

In anticipation of the upcoming 2010 Census, the U.S. Census Bureau is recruiting for a large number of jobs nationwide. Jobs range from full-time managerial roles to part-time roles working in local communities. Bilingual and multilingual job seekers are strongly encouraged to apply.

Join us for a web-based discussion on jobs with the U.S. Census Bureau.

As a Mentor, you will be assigned to one immigrant professional jobseeker we are helping to find professional employment. Mentors help the jobseeker connect with other professionals, prepare for job interviews, and serves as an "industry expert" as well as a "job-search coach" by providing general advice on areas such as the American workplace, networking, applying to jobs, following up with employers, identifying opportunities and preparing a "30 second elevator speech". We require a minimum of 5 hours per month and at least one meeting in person per month. As a Mentor you can work with our jobseekers in person, by phone and even by email. Oftentimes our jobseekers may have specific questions regarding the transferability of their skills and education as well.
